Staying at a friend's house in Louisville Ohio and the house is heated with hot water. I love these old cast iron radiators and the heat they give off!

I picked this guy up for $12.
It is a style 1 (not a 1A, note the screws on the bezel) Big Ben. The movement is dated 1914.
If you look closely you'll see that there is a dealer imprint on the dial for A. Amant, Jeweler, Chandlerville, Illinois.
Albert Amant (1873-1923) and his brother Jacob operated a jewelry store in Chandlerville. Chandlerville's peak was around 1920, at which time it had just under 1000 people living there.

I have started an okbridges channel on a second video platform called odysee.com
Feel free to take a look.
In addition, I will also be starting a second channel there called okmusic for videos of records and piano rolls.

It may be some time before I get many of the older videos from youtube on odysee, and at this time I have no plans to put any of the older low resolution videos that were shot with my old Olympus C-765 camera there.

As of now, however, new videos will be posted on both video platforms.
